For six games, the Nuggets and the Thunder have served up a playoff buffet of thrills, spills, and highlight reels — and now, fans are getting the cherry on top: Game 7.
The stage was set after another high-wire showdown Thursday night, where the Nuggets punched back with a 119-107 win to keep the party going. It was playoff basketball at its finest — heavy on the tension and dripping with drama.
At Ball Arena, Denver looked every bit like the defending champs, digging in their heels and refusing to fold. More importantly, they finally cracked the code that had haunted them lately — holding onto a fourth-quarter lead instead of watching it slip through their fingers.
